fragment 3
Apollodorus, ii. 1.3.1
Hesiod and Akusilaus say that she (Io) was the daughter of Peiren. While she was holding the office of priestess of Hera, Zeus seduced her, and being discovered by Hera, touched the girl and changed her into a white cow, while he swore that he had no intercourse with her. And so Hesiod says that oaths touching the matter of love do not draw down anger from the gods:
"And thereafter he ordained that an oath concerning the secret deeds of the Kyprian (Aphrodite) should be without penalty for men."
